Hairstylist Finder Goes National

InsideINdianaBusiness.com Report

Indianapolis-based My Best Friend's Hair is going national. The startup, which launched in July, has established a nationwide website that helps you find a salon or hairstylist. The searchable database features reviews, prices, locations of more than 20,000 salons.

INDIANAPOLIS ó My Best Friendís Hair announces the national launch of a website to match you with the best salon or hairstylist based on reviews, pricing, hair type, location, services or specialties. Designed to take the fear out of sitting in a new stylistís chair, the website allows you to browse through unbiased reviews of thousands of hairstylists at the tip of your fingertips.

For hairstylists and salon owners, My Best Friendís Hair represents the opportunity to attract new clientele without the hefty fee of creating, maintaining, or optimizing a website. With a searchable profile on the website, salons and hairstylists can share pictures of their work, promote special offers and display customer reviews.

ďThe idea for My Best Friendís Hair came from fact that most women prefer to find a new hairstylist based on recommendations, but there was simply no good way to begin your research and find the best match online,Ē said Janell Shaffer, founder and CEO of My Best Friendís Hair. ďOur experience has been that women either love or are very dissatisfied with their current hairstylist, and this website provides women with an outlet to praise their hairstylist or to find one that will better suit their needs.Ē

Currently there are over 20,000 salons represented on the site and stylist numbers are growing quickly.

ďMy Best Friendís Hair helps hairstylists and salons build a clientele on a tight budget,Ē said Danielle McDowell, CMO of My Best Friendís Hair. ďImage is everything in the hair industry. Not only can a stylistís profile on My Best Friendís Hair be used to create a strong image online but could even be used as a personal web site. It will increase their visibility on search engine results and allows them to display beautiful photos of their work. Most importantly, it will spread the word about why their clients love them.Ē
